[MauDevils]

Deboer outcoached by some guy in his first NHL game.

 

[VaxjoDevil]

Don't really understand why both Zajac and Patty tried to deke but whatever. They both sucked at it big time.

 

[MadDevil]

This team is so ****ing bad defensively it's not even funny.

 

[bmqdevils]

positives:
no trouble scoring without kovy. it's the lightning, but still.
defense looked horrible and we got a point
we got a point. every point is huge
negatives:
we blew a lot of leads.
defense sucked
shootouts...
how do you give up a goal with 15 seconds left?

 

[lboogie42*]

overreact? I think we're reacting justifiably. Twice they blew a 2 goal lead. TWICE.

No matter what a team does, if they are ur fav team, they should not be getting bashed the way they are on these boards right now. I don't care how bad they played. The post I've seen are ridicilous.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

i love how it's a shootout, and the devils refuse to shoot. but hey uncle jesse knows how to shoot.

Didn't Kostopoulos and Carter show this team how easy it is to score on Garon? JUST SHOOT low right, on net and it's in. Instead they start the slowest, laziest, sloppiest dekes and fumble the puck running out of real estate.

 

[NHL Fanatik*]

Who cares??


They're not chasing us.....It's the Rags and Isles that are chasing us.



At least we were able to get one point.

EVEN THOUGH WE'RE SUPPOSED TO HAVE GOTTEN TWO.

15 SECONDS....... FMH.

I digress. My comment was incorrect, continue.

 

[apice3*]

so dramatic. We win the skills competition and were proud of persevering. We lost it so we jump off a bridge.

 

[Devilsfanatic0421]

Zero urgency on this team.

 

[glenwo2]

Who cares at this point.

This team is 1 and done.

I'm sure the LA Fans were thinking the same thing when their team got in as the 8th seed due to another team choking it away....

It's called venting. We all do it in different ways.

 

[Devils Dominion]

I gurantee a loss tomorrow night.
Not a reverse jinx but reality. Team had no hockey smarts,is poorly coached,slow,old and unskilled.
Blow it up Lou. Get rid of Patty and Clarkson too and rebuild.

 

[NJDevs26]

I do think some of the fatalism is over the top amazingly enough. The loss seems worse than it was because of how it happened. We blew three-goal leads in the playoffs last year and overcame that. This loss isn't going to bury us.

 

[MauDevils]

Volch better be benched next game.

Knowing our coach, Salvador and Lokti will be the scratches.

 

[engy]

These games make me sick watching them. Just so many head shaking moments

Maybe Bishop got in their heads stopping their shots so easily, so they thought they'd have to deke him?

 

[captainscott]

this has been one frustrating season... this team is rarely winning the game of breaks. we always lose when we play bad lose a lot when we play good and always lose when its equally played.

that usually comes down to just having a lunch pal team vs a highly skilled team.

fayne looked like a guy that missed 3 weeks tonight, not sure they should keep guys out of lineup that long and expect solid games when returning

gionta kinda had a chance to seal this game with empty net but had a horrible last shift.

marty made lots of really good saves but looked bad in shootout...i won't comment on our shooters

another game that could have went either way goes to the other team...this is happening too much just wonder how long they can hang on to a playoff spot giving all thes pts away.

 

[glenwo2]

Isn't Tampa Bay just 4 behind us now?... That's pretty close.

At this point of the season, I'm more concerned about the Rags and Isles than I am about Tampa.

 

[R8Devs]

Man, they could have had 2 points. Oh well, just win tomorrow.

Please bench Volchenkov.

 

[Sir Fenwick Corsi]

If the Devils make the playoffs, this game will be forgotten.

Well yeah, but my point is that a game like this may very well cost them the opportunity.

This was a very bad loss. They didn't play well and still should have won but found a way to lose it.

I don't know anymore. I'm not as pissed about the losses as I was a couple of weeks back because it is what it is and they've been dealt a pretty bad hand this season, but God Damn they're really finding a lot of different ways to lose and it;s tough to watch.

 

[BrodeursCups]

this team is painfully average at best

That's an insult to average. 15-11-8 is ugly stuff no matter which way you slice it. We are not a good team. We've been FEEDING the bottom of the east points for quite some time now...

 

[StvBroDan]

And the bashing of our supposed "favorite" team has begun.

I saw one period of this game they pretty much deserve to be soundly bashed. Tomorrow myself and everybody else will be fully behind them. People really need to get off the fact that people are going to be pissed off when you blow a game that way.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

Volchenkov only played 28 seconds after that last goal half way through the 3rd period. He will probably be benched tomorrow.

 

[Traitor Zach]

so dramatic. We win the skills competition and were proud of persevering. We lost it so we jump off a bridge.

Sorry bud, this was a brutal loss. The evolution of it was absolutely painful.
